Now that is an interesting collection - a 66 back clamp with a very early singer motor - in a non-singer treadle cabinet with the moving parts removed, with a set of attachments - only one of which would fit this machine, and a manual for a non-singer vibrating shuttle machine - maybe the manual is for what was originally in that cabinet.

I am right now in the process of making a Jewelers bench with my youngest DD (she is a budding Jeweler). I picked up my Radial Arm saw, Router Table, and Lathe from my buddy that was borrowing them for the last year. We would have LOVED to start with those as a base.... but we are making it from scratch.

That early Singer motor looks like a knock-off of the Hamilton Beach. Check out the two metal strips in front and in back of the bed. They look like linoleum edging.

Is it missing an "N" for $500?

I think this is the most foolish treadle turned quilt rack I've ever seen.
